Dr. Hucker is originally from St. Louis where he attended Washington University and completed medical and graduate school. His doctoral work in Biomedical Engineering focused on the cardiac conduction system. He moved to Boston in 2009 for medical residency at Massachusetts General Hospital and served as Chief Resident for the Internal Medicine program as well. He completed general cardiology and cardiac electrophysiology fellowships at MGH, as well as a postdoctoral research fellowship with Dr. Ellinor investigating the genetics of atrial fibrillation.

His research interests include the molecular mechanisms of atrial fibrillation, arrhythmia models, and arrhythmia mapping systems. His clinical interests include catheter ablation of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias as well as device implantation.
